Based on the latest findings from physics education research, Physics: An Algebra-Based Approach, written by Ernie McFarland, Alan J. Hirsch, and Joanne M. O'Meara, focuses on student understanding through the use of engaging real-life applications, unique Fermi problems, conceptual examples, free body diagrams in mechanics, and concept fixes based on research into common student misconceptions. The WebAssign component for this text includes question-level links to an interactive eBook.

In addition to questions taken directly from this textbook, WebAssign offers an additional set of more than 1200 correlated questions covering every concept in the course, authored by experienced physics instructors.

Additional content features:

Answer feedback for every question part, designed specifically to address student misconceptions.

Detailed stepped-out solutions for every question, available at the instructor's discretion.
